Compilation issues with gd.h on Linux 64bit

[Xin]

Here are the changes that were made to get mapserver compiling on my 64 bit
box.  Hopefully this will help someone.

Here are the changes that needs to be made:

   1. Change configure.in so that configuration file can find libgd in
   /usr/lib/64
   2. Set library folder to /usr/X11R6/lib64 so that libXpm.so and
   libXext.so can be found
   3. Prompt it to load libXext


1.1         Configuration Changes

   1. Open up configure.in for editing
   2. Edit file so that $GD_INCLUDE=/usr/include and
   $GD_LIBDIR=/usr/lib64


   1. On line 501, just before an if statement, add these lines:

                                                               i.
GD_INCLUDE=/usr/include

                                                             ii.
GD_LIBDIR=/usr/lib64

   1. Parse configure.in to make configuration script.
      1. %> autoconf –o configure2 configure.in


   1. Run configure2 with normal options and --with-xpm=/usr/X11R6/lib64.
    This will produce  'Makefile' file
      1. %> ./configure2 --with-gd=/usr/local \

--with-ogr=/home/isharema/usr/bin/gdal-config \

 --with-gdal=/home/isharema/usr/bin/gdal-config \

 --with-proj=$HOME/usr \

 --with-freetype \

--with-jpeg \

--with-xpm=/usr/X11R6/lib64

   1. Open Mapfile for editing
      1. Go to line *211* and *212*
      2. Include –lXext to load Xext library.  This will make both
      CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS equal to

                                                               i.       -O2
-fPIC -Wall -lXext  $(FLAGS)

   1. type make
      1.  %> make



That's it!
